Tropical and vibrant with a smooth and creamy finish. We brew it with flaked oats, strawberries, Madagascar vanilla beans, and lactose sugar, and then we dry-hop it with generous amounts of El Dorado and Mosaic.

Appearance wise, this beer is bright red, almost like Smuckers Jam red. This is probably what they're going for as it tasted and smelled exactly like Smucker's jelly. The aromas and appearance were great, but taste wise I actually felt like I was drinking from the tub of strawberry jelly in my fridge right now, without peanut butter! I mean cool concept and all and I love love cloud candy, but this didn't really do it for me. It drank smooth though, and did not ruin my day. However, a one time experience that I do not think I'll revisit.

This is by far the worst beer I've tried. I cannot believe this is called an IPA. It tastes like someone squeezed a lemon and crushed an unripe strawberry into a budweiser. It's altogether uninspired and borderline vile.

Don't imagine creamy milkshakey strawberryness. It's more like bland sudsy water ... there is almost a sweetly soapy taste to it and an odd citrusy bitterness that comes out in the aftertaste. The sweetness tastes manufactured, almost like a nutrasweet and not like fresh fruit.

The beer is very light from a mouthfeel perspective, slightly foamy and pinkish colored.

Overall I might prefer the taste of vodka mixed with dishwater to this messy disaster. After one can I am trying to think of people in my office whom I hate but know drink beer so I can gift the remaining 3 cans of beer to them to ruin their day. The only bright spot is I paid only a bit over 12 bucks for the four pack ... could have been a more expensive mistake. I never would have guessed creamy strawberry was what this beer was going for if I was given a taste with no explanation.

I've had a few Mighty Squirrel beers before of other varieties and though they were average beers, this loathsome creation is far below average. In as much as I feel very bad pouring it down the drain ... for the drain's sake.

On-tap at Miller's Ale House, Watertown, MA

A: The beer is crystal clear light amber in color and has a light amount of visible carbonation. it poured with a half finger high white head that left a thin collar around the edge of the glass and some lacing down the sides.
S: Light to moderate aromas of strawberries and underlying malts are present in the nose.
T: The taste has flavors of strawberries along with a light to moderate amount of bitterness.
M: It feels light- to medium-bodied and slightly smooth and creamy on the palate with a moderate amount of carbonation.
O: This beer does a good job at combining the strawberry aroma and flavors with a smooth and creamy mouthfeel.

Serving type: on-tap

16 oz can into IPA g;lass. Dated 9/25/18.
Look is nice semi-cloudy golden orange. Smell is sweet and strawberry. Taste follows very nice beer taste in front and sweetness underneath. Nice like feel. Overall a very nice fruited IPA that I would buy again. .
